Sumario: | INTRODUCTION: One of the most pressing goals for cancer immunotherapy at this time is the identification of actionable antigens. METHODS: This study relies on the following considerations and approaches to identify potential breast cancer antigens: (i) the significant role of the adaptive immune receptor, complementarity determining region-3 (CDR3) in antigen binding, and the existence cancer testis antigens (CTAs); (ii) chemical attractiveness; and (iii) informing the relevance of the integration of items (i) and (ii) with patient outcome and tumor gene expression data. RESULTS: We have assessed CTAs for associations with survival, based on their chemical complementarity with tumor resident T-cell receptor (TCR), CDR3s. Also, we have established gene expression correlations with the high TCR CDR3-CTA chemical complementarities, for Granzyme B, and other immune biomarkers. CONCLUSIONS: Overall, for several independent TCR CDR3 breast cancer datasets, the CTA, ARMC3, stood out as a completely novel, candidate antigen based on multiple algorithms with highly consistent approaches. This conclusion was facilitated by use of the recently constructed Adaptive Match web tool. |
